    All that and not a brake in sight!

    The first 2 photos are what the bike would look like when left chained to a bike rack in downtown Miami, while running into the post office.

    LOL! Not if you know how to lock it. However, if someone wants your bike, there is no unstoppable lock out there.

    True, and if they cant steal it, they will wreck it for you.

    When I ride my bikes, they never leave my side. If I have to go to the bathroom while I'm out, they come in the stall with me. If I need water or something to eat, my bikes wait on line with me. I don't even bring a chain with me when I ride. The 1st two picks are how I bought it off of craigslist. I love the sloping top tube, the super thick tear drop shaped down tube and the unique rear triangles. Not seen another one like it (except the web of course).

    Cheers

    I try to do the same, however, when I leave my bike locked with a Kryptonite New York "Fahgettaboudit", front and rear tire plus seat post with Pitlock locks, it's not far from sight and if not in sight for no longer than 5 minutes if I absolutely have too. Which leave the theft with 3 minutes of spare to steal the bike!

    They can steal my car and I think I wouldn't mine as much as my bike!

    Abandoned. As with shaving I decided that one bicycle is enough and that it's a Good Idea™ to put money aside for other things.
    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

    looking at the seat post set up I have to assume the frame is too small for you .........

    Sounds like risk compensation to me ..........
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
